Question

Assertion: `O_(2)` gets bound to haemoglobin in the lung surface and gets dissociated at the tissues.
Reason: `CO_(2)` trapped as bicarbonate at the tissue 1 and transported to the alveoli is released out as `CO_(2)`.
A. If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

C. If assertion is true but reason is false.
D. If both assertion and reason are false.
